Tamden McCrory def Pete Spratt Submission (Triangle Choke) 2:04 rnd 2My Pick: Pete by KO, first roundIn the bottom of my heart, I knew Pete would not win this one. Pete is just too one dimensional to win in the UFC. I want him to win, because he is such a nice guy and fun to watch, but with out the ground skill, he just won't be able to make the jump.

Forrest Petz def Luigi Fioravanti DecisionMy Pick: Luigi by RNC second round.Forrest looked great and took it to Luigi. Very impressive win.

Thiago Tavares def Jason Black Submission (Triangle Choke) 2:49 rnd 2My Pick: I say Jason by KO third roundThiago put on a BJJ in MMA clinic for Jason Black, ending it in the slickest triangle since Lister/Sakara. Thiago is someone to watch!!

Jon Fitch def Roan Carneiro Submission (Rear Naked Choke) 1:07 rnd 2My Pick: I go with Fitch by KO second roundRoan was clearly winning the fight, beating Jon from pillar to post, then Jon caught him with a big punch and Roan simply gave up. Roan did not fight the choke or try to escape back mount, he just gave Jon the choke so he could go home. Good work, Jon!!

Spencer Fisher def Sam Stout DecisionMy Pick: Spence by KO first roundSpence did what he needed to do and beat Sam all over the ring, though it did appear that Spence was on the receiving end of lots of punishment. Sam certainly can dish out the pain. Spencer seems to have trouble landing the big one lately, as well as having trouble closing the show. He had Sam nearly out several times, but did not press the action to end the fight. It was the same in the Franca fight. Hopefully that was due to fatigue and we will see the knock out artist return!
